Trump has ordered 14 military strikes on drug boats since September. 57 people are dead. Bodies are washing up on Caribbean shores. And even Rand Paul is calling it unconstitutional.

But here's what nobody's asking: What would YOU do if you had the power to stop the boats bringing fentanyl that killed 73,000 Americans last year?

In this episode, I break down why Trump's approach is right, why the traditional Coast Guard method fails 93% of the time, and why even constitutional conservatives like Rand Paul are getting this dead wrong.

📊 KEY FACTS:
- 73,690 Americans died from drug overdoses (12 months ending April 2025)
- Coast Guard intercepts only 7-15% of maritime cocaine
- 27% of Coast Guard boardings find no drugs
- 14 strikes since September 2nd - 57 confirmed dead
- Operations expanded from Caribbean to Eastern Pacific
